No, not the roller coaster, nor the old pinball machine from Williams — but the July issue of Knights of the Old Republic, which now has a page on the site here. Knights #43 has a spiffy cover by Benjamin Carré. Order yours now! And I have some notes up on issue #40, touching on everything from Gotal prosthetics to David Letterman…
Well, I sure as heck didn’t mean for it to be close to a month between posts here — but I’m working on several projects simultaneously, and it’s kept me busy enough that I haven’t had time to discuss those that I can talk about. And none at all to delve into the other bloggy things that bloggers do. So hang in there — and make sure to grab Star …
This past weekend was something like my eleventh or twelfth Midsouthcon since the mid-1980s, and as usual it was a blast. This time, the big change was in venue — at the Whispering Woods Conference Center in Olive Branch, just outside Memphis — and in the number of Star Wars-related folk in attendance. Above is Cullen Johnson‘s photo of registration — which I liked because it got in the “CSI” …

Very busy week coming up here. I’m in Memphis for Midsouthcon — panel schedule when I have it — and also Knights of the Old Republic #39 is set to go on sale this week. Plus, our new storyline just started at Sword & Sarcasm, and there are new posts up at The Comics Chronicles. What? Fill out my NCAA brackets? Sure. Can I do it after the games, when …
Yep, the issue you’ve been waiting for — Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #42 has finally been solicited, answering many questions about how the comics characters fit into the video game continuity, and vice versa. This issue also features the first KOTOR art from Ron Chan, whose Zayne sketch appears at right — and whose site can be found here. Check it out! Lots of discussion of the …
Working non-stop, but I finally had a moment to get some pages set up for my game work. There’s a page for my Dawn of Defiance module for the Star Wars Role-Playing Game — it’s not released yet, but that’ll be where the notes go (and where there will be link to the Wizards download page). And, yes — ye cats! — I finally got around to writing up some …
I give 10 answers to 10 questions in the interview series that’s on ComicsCareer.com. A fun interview, and a useful site. On an unrelated note, this year was the first time I saw absolutely no parts of the Oscars telecast whatsoever. I saw exactly three movies last year — Indy, Iron Man, and Dark Knight— and the first two were on the same day! Though I haven’t watched much basketball …
The production notes are online for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #38 — and also for Star Wars: Vector Vol. 1. And in so doing, I discovered there weren’t notes yet for Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Vol. 4 — so those are there, now, too. Not much to say — there weren’t many corrections in these later volumes. Whittling away, but writing is not leaving …
Yep, it’s Halloween in February, in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic #38, going on sale Wednesday — with a spooky haunted ship and more surprises. Cool artwork by my friend Dean Zachary, with whom I’ll be appearing next month at Midsouthcon at Memphis — as well as Star Wars: Legacy‘s John Ostrander. It’s a different kind of issue — putting me in the mind a little of that …
